This isn't the fanciest of posts, but the photo was kind of wild and funky--the colors and all. I had crazy amounts of halloween candy leftover! Not knowing how much to get this year because we are living in a new area, I, of course over-bought AND OVER ATE. I tweeted that I was finished polishing off the peanut M&M's and was going to move onto the Twix.I did not have dinner Halloween night but am certain I ate a few cups of candy. I had to take probiotics yogurt an hour after. LOLAs of today, the halloween candy, just like Elvis has left the building.

A good friend of mine Scary Mommysaid on twitter yesterday: "&#$%@ Halloween Candy!" I couldn't agree more, and I am so glad it's all gone. Now we have to deal with the eating festivities of thanksgiving and christmas. One down, two to go....

I am impressed - no, make that envious - that you had any leftover H'ween candy left! Because of where our home was situated (off busy road, no sidewalks, huge distance b/w houses), we never got any trick-or-treaters. So I only bought 2 bags of candy: one to finish before 10/31 and the other to finish by 11/1!

I have some left over chocolate that I will be eating up for the next week. hahaha... Good thing I love chocolate. But I may just have to bake them into something to kick it up a notch. A girl could only eat so much chocolate in one sitting. :) Nice job with the bundt cake!!!

This cake looks fantastic. I love those pops of color in it. By the way, I'm holding a CSN giveaway on my blog and you're welcome to come by and enter. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2010/11/45-csn-giveaway.html

This is so super pretty! I live in school housing so there was no trick or treating and hence no leftover candy. Bummer. But I bet the CVS or Walgreens around here has leftover candy. That counts right?

Seriously SCARY cake! LOL I would love to do something like this. It reminds me of a time someone dared me to do a Smarties biscotti. It worked, but in the end, the biscotti were stained just like your bundt cake.

The problem with kids is you have to try and be a good example and eat the darn candy slowly. My son's candy stash calls to me hourly even though I have so far resisted its siren song. Maybe I should talk him into one of these cakes!
